How is the name pronounced? All-ovah like all over? Uh lova, like Chicago for a lover? Sounds like the name of a prescription drug.

As a cybersecurity pro who primarily deals with email security right now (in the sense that there is basically none)

Yeah Relay works still and is going in a subscription model

The exposure is still greater than the zero that currently exists. If only 1% see the stuff from the smaller instances and figure out what's up, they'll jump. That's better than the current near 0. There's not really a scenario where it reduces the activity here any further, only improves it.

EXACTLY! It only benefits us because it hugely increases the exposure of the fediverse to the outside world so people who ARE interested can merely jump over. It makes the fediverse more interesting for people like me who can "live" here and access the content I want.

Glad you said this. People demanding large instances like this one defederate from stuff they don't personally like are, frankly, very mislead and trying to be little dictators. That's not their decision to make.

Needlessly aggressive internet arguments and flame wars for no reason

Threads does not really want or care about our tiny userbase. They want the normies and they want to OWN most of the marketshare of this protocol

It's real hard to break a habit that's been ongoing for almost 12 years for me. I'm trying to do my part by contributing, upvoting, etc

Very rigid routines and coping mechanisms. For your tab problem, I use OneTab to collapse and save them all into a searchable list for later.

So the key for me has been "offloading" and "outsourcing" is what I call them. Memory tasks I offload to my phone like reminders, obsessive calendaring, note taking, and to do lists. I automate as much as possible when it comes to systems designed to make me get on task. Basically, if executive function is a limited resource (it is if you have ADHD) the less decision making you have to do, the better. Pre-make decisions and go from a script or playbook. That's my calendar and notes.

They simply should not be allowed to advertise with the fake frames IMO.

It will still sell by the millions :(
